What is Boolean logic?
The Boolean logic is named after a 19th century mathematician, George Boole. It is a form of algebra where the values are reduced to either TRUE or FALSE. As such, it fits nicely with the computers’ binary numbering system, in which each bit has a value of either 1 or 0. Another way of looking at it is that each bit has a value of either TRUE or FALSE. Using this type of logic results in a powerful search and you can find the exact jobs you are looking for.
